5. AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT (ARRA) —RIVERSIDE
COUNTY HIGHWAY PROPOSAL
• CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION ACTIONS
Shirley Medina, RCTC, stated that the ARRA proposal was presented at the
March 11, 2009 Commission meeting. She provided a table that was revised
following the Commission meeting. The items that were revised are in Scenario
1, the Palm Drive Interchange initially had zero and the Bob Hope Interchange
had $20 million; however, the Palm Drive Interchange is moving ahead faster
and is not as complicated as far as finishing the right of way. The change
indicates that $5 million was moved to Scenario 1 and the Bob Hope Interchange
was reduced by that amount. Staff will work closely with CVAG regarding the I-
10 Interchanges.
She further stated that as indicated in the Commission agenda item, 30% is
expected to come to the regions - approximately $35 million.
The 70% scenario is questionable. It is not known how those funds will be
distributed at this time, but legislation is pending that proposes to distribute the
state's ARRA share through the STP formula.
At the March 11/12, 2009 CTC meeting, the $625 million SHOPP level was
approved. At this time, the regions are not able to get an allocation of the ARRA
highway funds. A special meeting will be held on April 1 to start some of the
allocations for some of the regions that have projects ready to go.

All but three jurisdictions responded and submitted their "base year" MOE calculations.
As a result of a preliminary review of the submitted amounts, staff identified a few
potential issues related to the 2009 Measure MOE guidelines and consulted with legal
counsel regarding revisions to these guidelines provided that such revisions do not
conflict with the 2009 Measure A ordinance. As a result, staff proposes the following
revisions subject to Commission approval, as per the attachment:
• The "base year" amount shall be no less than the preceding MOE requirement;
• The three year period for averaging of local discretionary funds under I.B.2a
shall be 2004/05 through 2006/07;
• The fiscal year for local discretionary funds under 1.6.2b shall be 2006/07;
• The fiscal years to be used for the reevaluations and revisions in 2019 and
2029 were updated to be consistent with the changes to 113.2;
• Jurisdictions that do not meet the full MOE requirement shall not be eligible for
Measure A allocations in the following fiscal year; and
• A jurisdiction is limited to the three preceding years for the use of local
discretionary funds expended for local street and road purposes which were. in
excess of the full MOE requirement.
Staff will review an analysis of the 2009 MOE submissions with the committee. As a
result of the recommended changes to the 2009 MOE guidelines, staff intends to advise
all cities and the county of the changes, especially those related to the calculation of the
MQE requirement, and allow revised MOE submittals through May 22, 2009.
Staff will present the 2009 MOE submissions to the Commission for approval at the
June 10, 2009 meeting. Upon approval of the MOE requirement, the annual process of
gathering MOE certifications and the five year capital improvement plans for
Commission approval can be completed; jurisdictions can then begin receiving FY
2009/10 Measure A local streets and roads allocations in September 2009.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
2009 MEASURE A LOCAL STREETS AND ROADS
MAINTENANCE OF EFFORT GUIDELINES
INTENT
Ordinance No. 02-001, adopted by the Riverside County Transportation
Commission in 2002, approved a county -wide transportation expenditure plan and
called for the placement of Measure A on the November ballot to secure voter
approval of a 1/2 percent sales tax to fund transportation improvements. On
November 5, 2002, Riverside County voters approved Measure A and collection of
the sales tax will commence on July 1, 2009.
Ordinance No. 02-001, in accordance with state law, imposes specific
requirements on local agencies wishing to receive Measure A funds. In particular, in
order to ensure continued local effort to maintain local streets and roads, the
Ordinance requires that local agencies continue to expend the same amount for
construction and maintenance of local roads which they have expended in the past.
The guidelines set forth below establish specific maintenance of effort requirements
and are intended to satisfy the Commission's responsibility to ensure that local
transportation expenditures are maintained.
GUIDELINES
I. In order to qualify for Measure A funds, each local agency entitled to
funding under Ordinance No. 02-001 must demonstrate a continuing commitment
of local discretionary funds to local street and road improvements and
maintenance. The following actions are required annually to show a continued
maintenance of local effort:
A. Each local agency must submit to the Riverside County
Transportation Commission ("Commission") a list of proposed uses for Measure A
funds for the next five fiscal years (5-Year Plan).
B. Each local agency must provide a certification to the Commission
that Measure A funds will not replace existing local discretionary funds being used
for local transportation purposes. Examples of local non -discretionary funds
include, but are not limited to, gas tax revenues, federal funding, and local
transportation funds (LTF). This certification shall be based on one of the following
findings:
I. That the same level of discretionary funds was expended
for local streets and roads purposes during the past fiscal year as was reported in
the State Controller's Annual Report of Financial Transactions for Streets and
Roads for fiscal year 2007/08 (herein referred to as the "base year"); or
2. That extraordinary expenditures made by the local agency
during fiscal year 2007/08 make use of the State Controller's Annual Report for that
year unrealistic. In this case, the local agency may, upon approval of the
Commission, determine its local maintenance of effort requirement using one of the
following methods:
a. Averaging the amount of local discretionary funds
reported to the State Controller for the three year period of fiscal years 2004/05
through2006/07; or
b. ,Using the amount of local discretionary funds .
reported to the State Controller for fiscal year 2006/07, or
c. Petitioning the Commission for special
consideration. The Commission recognizes that there may be cases where the two
methods described above will not produce a dollar amount which adequately
reflects the agency's past commitment of local revenues to the construction and
maintenance of local streets and roads. In such cases, the Commission may
establish a new minimum level of local streets and roads expenditures for the local
agency based on factors which the Commission determines are relevant. The
Commission may also allow, in its sole discretion, a local agency to use developer
fees to satisfy its maintenance of effort requirement. A local agency petitioning the
Commission under this provision has the responsibility of presenting evidence
which shows the need for special consideration and which supports the new
{ Deleted: 2005/06
l Deleted:_ 2007/08
Deleted: Subtracting extraordinary
expenditures (including but not limited
to assessment district funds,
redevelopment agency contributi
or other ran -recurring contributio
from its total expenditures during th
2007/08 fiscal year. Development
impact fees paid by developers
constructing new housing to offset the
impact of development on local
streets and roads may be subtracted
only if the local agency does not use
such funds to satisfy its maintenance
of effort requirement
minimum expenditure limit
The amount determined pursuant to 1.6.1 or 1.6.2, above, shall be no
less than theprecedinq Measure A maintenance of effort requirement.
C. For cities incorporated after July 1, 2007, the base year shall be
the average of the first three fiscal years of operations. The maintenance of local
effort requirement shall apply to all fiscal years subsequent to the base year.
D. The maintenance of local effort shall be reevaluated and revised

• Where appropriate, adequate erosion protection facilities (i.e. curb and gutter, rolled
curb, asphalt berm, etc.) should exist or be planned for construction to maintain the
integrity of the proposed project.
• Alignment of bikeways and sidewalks must meet ADA requirements and excessively
meandering facilities are "discouraged".
• Bikeway projects must be included in adopted regional and/or local bikeway plans to
insure that consistency and connectivity is maintained. (See recommendation below
regarding support for preparation of regional/local bikeway plans.)
• Local agencies should require development to provide reasonable facilities, or to
bond for such facilities, in order to allow the SB 821 program to fund projects where
no other financial support is readily available.
• Support the allocation of funds to prepare a regional bikeway plan and/or assist local
agencies in preparation of local bikeway plans.
If your agency submits a project proposal for funding, you will be notified of the time and place the
SB 821 Committee will meet to review the proposal. You will be requested to provide a brief
presentation on the proposed project(s) to the committee and respond to any question they may have.
If your agency does not attend the Evaluation Committee presentation, your proposal will be
evaluated as submitted, and your agency assumes full responsibility for any unanswered
questions or concerns.
Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to call Martha at (951) 787-
7141 or email mdurbin@rctc.org.

RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
DATE:
April 20, 2009
TO:
Technical Advisory Committee
FROM:
Shirley Medina, Programming and Planning Manager
THROUGH:
Cathy Bechtel, Project Development Director
SUBJECT:
ARRA TE and STIP TE Programming for Remainder of FY 2008/09
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to approve programming additional ARRA TE and STIP TE
funding to maximize and prevent lapse of both sources of funds. The projects
recommended for additional funding are: 1) Palm Springs, Gene Autry Trail; 2)
Riverside, Alessandro Blvd; and 3) Temecula, Winchester Road.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) allocated $2,198,000 of
Transportation Enhancement (TE) funds for Riverside County. The county's State
Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) TE fund balance for the remainder of fiscal year
2008/09 is $2,881,000.
We have identified three TE projects that are ready to proceed with construction. The three
projects and their status are as follows:
Palm Springs, Gene Autry Trail —
The city submitted the STIP TE allocation request in January 2009. The California
Transportation Commission (CTC) deferred the allocation due to the State budget impasse.
Riverside, Alessandro Boulevard —
The city submitted the STIP TE allocation request to Caltrans in February for allocation at the
April CTC meeting. Caltrans was told not to forward allocation requests since the CTC was
deferring all allocations due to the State budget impasse.
Temecula, Winchester Road —
The city submitted the STIP TE allocation request to Caltrans in March for allocation at the
May CTC meeting. The allocation request is also on hold until further notice by Caltrans and
the CTC.
STIP projects that are programmed in the current fiscal year must request their allocation
regardless of whether the CTC can allocate funds. When funds become available the CTC
will allocate funds to projects that have been deferred starting with the first projects in the
queue. CTC staff has indicated that allocations may be approved starting in May.
To facilitate the delivery of the first project in the queue, which is Palm Springs' Gene Autry
project, staff recommends funding this project 100% with ARRA TE funds. ARRA TE funds
are available for obligation and should be maximized so that the project is delivered as soon
as possible. Palm Springs will be relieved of providing $337,000 in local match funds.
The second project in line is the city of Riverside's Alessandro Blvd. project. Staff
recommends funding this project with the remainder of ARRA TE funds and STIP TE funds.
If the STIP TE funds are available for allocation at the May or June meetings, the project can
proceed and the city will be relieved of providing $545,000 in local match funds. If the STIP
TE funds are not available, the city can request an AB 3090 reimbursement and move
forward with the project using their own funds and receive reimbursement when funds are
available. AB 3090 reimbursements are placed as high priorities in the next fiscal year. The
other option would be for the city to delay the project until STIP TE funds are available.
The third project is the city of Temecula's Winchester Road project. Staff recommends
funding this project using the remainder of FY 08/09 STIP TE funding, which reduces the
local funds by $400,000. As with the city of Riverside's project, if STIP TE funding is not
available for the remainder of the fiscal year, the city could request and AB 3090
reimbursement, or delay the project until STIP TE funds are available.
The attached table demonstrates the existing and recommended TE programming for the
three projects. In addition, staff increased existing STIP TE funds by 10% to maximize the
TE funds.

Process for Submitting Environmental Information
to the California Transportation Commission
Introduction
For all projects that are anticipated to be funded through a. program under the purview of the
California Transportation Commission (Commission), full compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is required. In addition, if federal requirements are
applicable, compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) is also required.
The Commission will not allocate funds to projects for design, right of way or construction until
the final environmental document is complete and the Commission has approved the
environmentally cleared project for consideration of future funding. The guidance below is
intended to outline the process that is required to receive approval for future consideration of
funding.
This information is intended for those CEQA Lead Agencies other than the Department: of
Transportation (Department). When the Department acts as the Lead Agency, the Department
will ensure that the necessary environmental documents, including the Notice of Preparation
(NOP), Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) and Final Environmental Impact Report
(FEIR), Negative Declaration (ND) or Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) are brought forward
to the Commission for action.
Background
Public Resources Code Section 21102 states that "No state agency, board, or commission shall
request funds, nor shall any state agency, board, or commission which authorizes expenditures
of funds, other than funds appropriated in the Budget Act, authorize funds for expenditure for
any project, other than a project involving only feasibility or planning studies for possible future
actions which the agency, board, or commission has not approved, adopted or funded, which
may have a significant effect on the environment unless such request or authorization is
accompanied by an environmental impact report. Feasibility and planning studies exempted by
this section from the preparation of an environmental impact report shall nevertheless include
consideration of environmental factors."
Public Resources Code Section 21150 states that "State agencies, boards, and commissions,
responsible for allocating state or federal funds on a project -by -project basis to local agencies
for any project which may have a significant effect on the environment, shall require from the
responsible local governmental agency a detailed statement setting forth the matters specified
in Section 21100 prior to the allocation of any funds other than funds solely for projects involving
only feasibility or planning studies for possible future actions which the agency, board, or
commission has not approved, adopted, or funded."

Notice of Preparation and Draft Environmental Impact Reports
Notices of Preparation and DEIRs should be forwarded to the Commission to allow the
Commission to provide comments as a Responsible Agency. The NOP and/or DEIR should be
accompanied by a letter that describes the following:
• Name of the CEQA Lead Agency
• Project Title
• County/Route/Postmile and Project Expenditure Authorization(s), if applicable
• Project funding information:
o Whether the project is fully funded, not fully funded, or funded through a certain project
phase (e.g., through PS&E)
o Funding source(s), amount(s) and programming year(s)
o Total estimated project cost
o Estimated year to begin construction (e.g., FY 2009-2010)
o Any unusual aspects of funding (e.g., grandfathered funds, project to be funded and built
in phases, etc.)
• Brief statement explaining reason for an Environmental Impact Report, rather than a
Negative Declaration or a Mitigated Negative Declaration
• The future action(s) the Lead Agency intends to request from the Commission for the
project:
o Vote of funds
o Vote to approve a Route Adoption
o Vote to approve a New Public Road Connection
• One copy of the NOP or DEIR
Negative Declarations/Mitigated Negative Declarations/Final Environmental Impact Reports
Upon completion of the environmental process by the Lead Agency, the ND, MND or FEIR
should be forwarded to the Commission to request that a project be considered for future
funding. The following is required for processing such a request:
• Name of CEQA Lead Agency
• Project Title
• County/Route/Postmile and Project Expenditure Authorization(s), if applicable
• Project funding information:
o Whether the project is fully funded, not fully funded, or funded through a certain project
phase (e.g., through PS&E)
o Funding source(s), amount(s) and programming year(s)
o Total estimated project cost
o Estimated year to begin construction (e.g., FY 2009-2010)
o Any unusual aspects of funding (e.g., grandfathered funds, project to be funded and built
in phases, etc.)
• The future action(s) the Lead Agency intends to request from the CTC for the project:
o Vote of funds
o Vote to approve a Route Adoption
o Vote to approve New Public Road Connection
• One copy of the FEIR, ND or MD (include an electronic copy, if available)
• One copy of the approved (signed) project approval document (e.g., Project Report)
• One copy of the Executive Summary
• One copy of the Lead Agency's Notice of Determination (NOD)

Given that the details of the House bill are now being constructed, the
T&I Committee has officially asked Members of Congress to submit High Priority
Project requests from their respective districts to the T&I Committee. Members
have been given until May 8 to submit High Priority Projects. The Commission
should soon be receiving calls for projects from the four Members who represent
Riverside County. In anticipation of this call, staff has prepared a recommendation
to the Federal Authorization Legislative Ad Hoc Committee for the Commission to
sponsor a strategic suite of projects for the authorization bill.
Vetting Commission Priority Projects
At its August 2008 meeting, this ad hoc committee received recommendations
from Commission federal lobbyists and staff regarding criteria for authorization
projects. Having received no alternative suggestions from the ad hoc committee at
that time, staff continues to recommend that projects sought by the Commission in
the next reauthorization shall:
• Have a clear federal nexus;
• Be regional in nature; and
• Be deliverable within the timeframe of the bill (before 2015-16)
Furthermore, the ad hoc committee discussed its desire to support corridors for
improvement rather than individual projects. A regional corridor approach is
consistent with recent policies by Senate and House Appropriations Committees
and Senator Feinstein. As the Commission discussed at its 2008 workshop in
La Quinta with its three federal lobbyists, staff believes the Commission will benefit
from maintaining a strategy that focuses on the highest regional priorities, despite
the many requests that will be made by cities for smaller projects. Competition will
be fierce for limited dollars; diluting the Commission's support for the multitudinous
local projects nominated by cities will detract from a regional message that can set
Riverside County apart from others in California and the nation.
Congressional Criteria
In a letter dated April 2, 2009, Chairman Oberstar, Ranking Member Mica, and
key committee members outlined their standards for High Priority Project requests.
The letter is an attachment to this item. The basic points are outlined below:
• For road projects, is the project on the national highway or interstate
system?
• Can 80% of the total cost of the phase or segment of the project be
identified through local, state, or federal sources? (Sources and amounts
must be named).
• How likely is construction of the project to begin during the term of the Act?

would further refine the details of this request to make a competitive application to
our Member offices and the T&1 Committee.
Interstate 215 Corridor Improvements
Congressional Districts: 41-Lewis, 44-Calvert, 45-Bono Mack, 49-lssa
Interstate 215 is a key corridor in the 2009 Measure A Expenditure Plan and is
prioritized by the Commission in the 10-Year Western County Highway Delivery
Plan. The California Transportation Commission (CTC) has also recognized 1-215 as
a priority with a $38 million investment from the Proposition 1 B Corridor Mobility
Improvement Account (CMIA). The Commission is investing in transit along the
corridor as well with the Perris Valley Line Metrolink Extension, a project that has
received significant federal investment. This highway is regionally significant in its
role as a link between Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. last week, the
Riverside County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution declaring 1-215 a
bi-county regional priority. The San Bernardino Board of Supervisors will soon
adopt the same resolution. The 1-215 corridor presents an opportunity to
demonstrate regional unity and address significant congestion and air quality
challenges.
Staff proposes that I-215 corridor improvements, consisting of three critical
projects, be considered for a High Priority Project request to Congress.

As with Alameda Corridor East, staff recommends that 1-215 be presented as a
dynamic package of investments that are regional in nature with direct federal
interest, emphasizing air quality improvement, mobility choices, and goods
movement benefits.
Perris Valley Line Remains a Priority for Annual Appropriations Cycle
Staff is not recommending that Perris Valley Line be included in the 1-215 Corridor
proposal for authorization. This project has been receiving federal funds from the
annual appropriations bills passed by Congress. Perris Valley Line is eligible to
receive a Project Construction Grant Agreement (PCGA) from the Federal Transit
Administration, which would create an obligation for the federal government to
fund the project up to $75 million. Annual appropriations from the Small Starts
program sponsored by Senator Feinstein have set aside approximately $47 million
for the project in the last two fiscal years. The Commission will continue to
request appropriations for Perris Valley Line until the project has received its
maximum federal share of $75 million.
1-10 Corridor Improvements
41-Lewis, 45-Bono Mack
The Coachella Valley Association of Governments and their local agency partners in
the desert have spent many years developing a series of five important interchange
reconstructions on 1-10. These interchanges have serious economic development,
air quality, and congestion relief implications for the Coachella Valley. The free
flow of people and commerce off of 1-10 is critical to the future of the valley. A
major obstacle to delivering these five interchanges has been securing funding in an
environment where construction costs escalated globally and budget problems
plagued the state and federal governments. The ARRA presentedan opportunity
for a breakthrough. At its March meeting, the Commission designated the
Palm Drive/1-10 and Bob Hope Drive/Ramon Road/I-10 interchanges as priorities for
investment using the Commission's anticipated ARRA funds.
Once these two "stimulus" projects go to construction, there will be three
remaining 1-10 interchanges to build: Indian Avenue/I-10, Jefferson Street/I-10,
and Date Palm Drive/1-10. Assuming timely enactment of the new authorization
bill, all three projects could stand to benefit from new federal funding. While local
and state commitments have been made to fully fund the projects once they are
ready to go to construction, downturns in state and local revenue present potential
future obstacles. Staff recommends that the Commission maintain a corridor
approach on 1-10 and request at least $110 million for all five interchanges to
guarantee delivery of these projects once pre -construction work is completed.

Ultimately, the goal of approving a Commission -sponsored suite of projects and
including them in the House bill is to establish a precedent in the public record that
Riverside County infrastructure is a national and regional priority. While the timing
of the legislation may change several times, staff recommends that Commission
projects be part of the initial draft.

on Transportation and Infrastructure has adopted the following principles. for Member -designated
High Priority:Projects:
• The Committee requires all projects to meet eligibility criteria under Tide 23
(Highways) or Chapter 53 of Tide 49 (Public Transit) of the United States Code to ensure
that HPPs comply with highway and transit program objectives, In addition, the
Committee specifically prohibits EIPP funding for non. -surface transportation
projects, such as funding of transportation museums, horse trails, historic
battlefields, and other non -transportation projects.
• The Committee requites Members- to provide specific information on the type,
